Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable fatty-acyl-CoA binding activity; flavin adenine dinucleotide binding activity; and glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase activity. Predicted to be involved in fatty acid beta-oxidation using acyl-CoA dehydrogenase and fatty-acyl-CoA biosynthetic process. Located in mitochondrial inner membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and liver and biliary system. Used to study glutaric acidemia I. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in glutaric acidemia I. Orthologous to human GCDH (glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase).
